August 2008
Hello everyone!
It’s been a busy summer at Vespa and probably
for you, too. There are a number of changes at the salon,
and some upcoming holiday time that I wanted to share with
you.
Personnel Changes
Reagan is now on maternity leave – a bit earlier
than anticipated, but both she and the baby are in good health.
She becomes fatigued easily and is required to rest. Reagan
asked that I pass on her thanks to everyone for their warm
wishes and loyalty over the past year.
Kiki has moved back to Toronto
due to her husband’s work and education. It was wonderful
to have her skill and talent for the short time she was at
Vespa, and I wish her success on her new journey.
I am actively advertising and interviewing for
another senior stylist; in the interim, I’m holding
down the fort with Courtney’s assistance.
Training
Courtney, Reagan and I attended a Colour class in
July. It gave us further technique, skills, tips and tricks
for our new colour line from Davines. We are having excellent
success with all ranges in the line, including ash tones,
which are traditionally difficult to achieve.
Summer Holidays
I will be on holidays – and the salon will
be closed – on the following dates:
* August 4th, 5th, 6th
* August 18th – 25th
* August 27th , 29th
Construction Update
The building restoration is coming along well, with
newly pointed brick everywhere. The front entry way will be
re-opened in early August, with all the original wood detailing
fully restored. In August, demolition at the back of the building
will begin. During that time, I may need to close the salon
on certain days due to power and water being temporarily turned
off. I will make every attempt to give everyone advance notice
of any temporary closures due to construction.
I wish everyone a wonderful August – hopefully
the weather will get back to Summer so you can enjoy your
back yards, cottages, pools, BBQs, etc.!
Sincerely,
Michael
